    Uttar Pradesh: Father stabs daughter for refusing to quit studies

    As if female education wasn't already a challenge, in Uttar Pradesh's Shahjahanpur, a 15-year-old girl has accused her father and brother of trying to kill her as she wanted to continue her studies against their wishes. Reportedly, the teen was stabbed repeatedly by her father and brother on Saturday as she had refused to quit studying and get married. Here are all the details.

    Father-brother duo took her to a canal; attacked her

    The girl, a Hathoura resident, was taken to a canal by her father and brother on Saturday, where her father stabbed her repeatedly with a knife while her brother restrained her, ANI reported. Later, the father pushed her into the canal. As he tried to check if she was still alive, the girl managed to swim away from the duo, the report added.

    'I begged him to stop but he did not'

    "My father took me to a desolate place near the canal. My brother joined him. While my brother restrained me with a cloth on the neck, my father repeatedly slashed at me from behind with a knife," she told ANI. "I begged him to stop but he did not. He wanted me to stop my studies and get married instead," the teen added.

    Police has taken girl's statement; investigation on

    Speaking to ANI, senior police officer Dinesh Tripathi stated that the police is currently investigating the charges leveled by the teen against her father and brother. "We have taken the statement of the girl and are looking into all the angles. Strictest action will be taken on the basis of the evidence which comes out," Tripathi said. No arrests have been made thus far.

    Girl staying at brother-in-law's house for 2 months

    The girl's brother-in-law said, "She had been living with us for two months. Her parents do not want her to continue her studies. They wanted to marry her off." "Just a couple of days before they had taken her from my house. Today I got a call that she had been found near a canal," he added. The girl is currently undergoing treatment.
